Interesting offering from NYSE. Cannot wait to see pricing information on this. It could open the door to people who previously didn’t have the technological means of using this data.

NYSE Tech to open sources Mama API
NYSE Technologies has decided to open source the Mama API. NYSE acquired the platform when they acquired Wombat Financial Software back in January 2008. Since then, NYSE Tech has been using Wombat and the Mama API for market data dissimination. They recently went the extra step of open sourcing the Mama/Mamda APIs, trying to solidify their position as the market leader in market data platforms.
Here are some interesting links:

- OpenMAMA and OpenMAMDA APIs
Interesting story to follow…
